2 Afghan Children Killed in U.S. Raid

HeadlineNov 02, 2007

In Afghanistan, at least three people, including two children, have been killed in an attack by Afghan and U.S. troops. A resident of Nangarhar province said the victims were all part of the same family.

Rahmat Gul: “They had wrong intelligence last night. They came, broke down the door and raided the house and have killed three people, wounded four other family members and also detained three of the family members. They could do it during the day, so why they are raiding during the night?”
